Or would it be easier on the user ( but more expensive) to build a
second extruder for PLA?
What are people's thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
O.
I say invest in extra barrels and a second plastruder. Don't get
stuck waiting for abs to melt in acetone or pla burning. Simply swap
and keep printing.
Anyone else?
